Walter Hill's revisionist take on the American cavalry's campaign to capture renegade Chiricahua Apache warrior Geronimo (Wes Studi) is, like Clint Eastwood's Unforgiven, a dark tale that both celebrates and critiques myths of the American West. Despite its title, Geronimo is really about the American cavalry officers who undertake the responsibility of recapturing the warrior, in particular the young narrator Lt. Charles Gatewood (Jason Patric), a Civil War hero who respects the great Geronimo and brokers a treaty with the Chiricahua, only to see it collapse when the army kills the tribal medicine man. Gene Hackman plays Gen. George Crook, the proud but sympathetic officer charged with bringing in the renegades who take to hills after the killing. Robert Duvall, the tough, racist army scout and Indian fighter Charlie Sieber, practically steals the picture with his cagey, underplayed performance. More complex and complicated than most Westerns, this is a Walter Hill film through and through: lean, ironic, beautiful to look at (it was shot on location against the astounding landscape of southeastern Utah), and driven by a wonderful Ry Cooder score. Don't confuse this with the 1993 TNT cable film by the same name; it confounded many viewers at the time of its release and may have been at least partially responsible for its box-office disappointment. --Sean Axmaker

It contains touching scenes and dialogues. For example, all the Apache Indian Scouts of the American Army were stripped of their guns and sent to "reservation area" after Geromino surrrendered. They were treated like traitors even though they had loyally served the Army.
In another scene, Geromino (Wes Studi) said "Do not hate each other. We have so few people left now".
In another one, Geromino asked Gen. George Crook (Gene Hackman) "Why your people have to take all the ... Read More

Geronimo: An American Legend has gone mostly under the radar since its release in 1993, but it's an above average historical movie that tries to show the truth in history instead of how movies usually portray it. In the 1880s, the U.S. Cavalry persuades Apache chief Geronimo to surrender and live on the reservation at Turkey Creek. But with a new life forced on him, Geronimo is uncomfortable and when a medicine man is shot down for inciting the tribe, the chief leaves the reservation with a band ... Read More

This is a well-written and historically accurate account of the treatment of the Apache indian Geronimo. It may come across a shock to some who were not aware of the illegal and immoral treatment of the American indians in general and Geronimo in particular. Notice how sad the Apache are at the end of the DVD, once they realize that they have been overpowered, coerced into submission then imprisoned for life by Americans in pursuit of their "Manifest Destiny."
Rating:  -
I like Walter Hill's movies very much. The Warriors, Johnny Handsome, and Streets of Fire are three of my very favorites. I like Geronimo, too, and wanted to get a copy, but I don't think this one is it. In the amazon.com writeup, the movie is described as being in 2:35 to 1 aspect ratio, but it's also described as full screen, which is 4:3 or "re-formatted to fit your TV". I carelessly bought a full screen version at Best Buy recently and ordered what I thought was the wide screen version here ... Read More
